Good news! Or bad news, depending how you look at it: the final film in the Maze Runner trilogy – The Death Cure – will not be spilt into two parts.
Director Wes Ball confirmed the decision not to follow in the footsteps of other YA series like The Hunger Games and Divergent, which have both divided their final films in two, extending the life of the franchises.
Ball told Digital Spy: “I think three is the number; beginning, middle, end, that’s it. Four? I think there’s something off about four. For me, if I have any say in it, there’s three movies basically.
“We’re not going to [split a book in two], no way. I think three movies is the right number, Star Wars!”
